I bead blasted mine to remove the paint and annodizing at the same time. They came out with a satin like finish that I clear coated.

Send them to Al Reed! He did a great job on mine and I'm sure it's alot of hard work. Good luck with the aircraft stripper!

for sure get the aircraft stripper. the standard household paint stripper is weak and will take several applications.

I refinished a set two years ago and they are still holding up well
